    I would do it, but I am sure there will be comments saying you shouldn’t. I’d recommend using your favorite search engine to find information on how to do it sous vide, other methods you might use and decide for yourself.

    Only thing I would do with that is sous vide

    The best way to cook it is the way you want

    The only reason to skip sous vide is if you’re cutting it really thin, or eating it really rare.

    In my experience, sous vide is great for wagyu.

    You can properly cook it all the way through such that all the fat is softened and juicy. It makes it taste like an incredible 10/10 steak.

    If you just sear it, the fat doesn’t soften so much so it ends up being more like a super intense fat bomb.
    This might give more “wow” factor but is definitely best for smaller bites, otherwise it’s just too extreme, like chewing on super intense fat and doesn’t really taste like steak.

    Sous vide wagyu is perfect for eating larger portions.

    **Personally I recommend doing both!
    Sous vide a larger chunk then keep some slices to sear as a special fatty treat**.

    I think so. I’ve done it both ways; I like it in a pan better. It’s Wagyu, not like it’s gonna get *more* tender with sous vide.

    Cook it the way you feel most comfortable

    I could be off base here but this looks like it has Steatosis. Was it advertised as wagyu?
